    Aw everyone has won some amazing things!!
    I have only been comping since June and have already won a few small things and a couple of what I would call biggies!! My best one has to be the WSB weekend tickets my hubbie is bike mad and it took me all day to convince him that I wasnt making it up and we had won!! I also won a harry potter goody bag worth over £200! That is gonna come in handy for christmas pressies as most of my family are harry potter mad!!

    I am so so pleased I have found this site and fingers crossed for big wins for everyone, I was made redundant whilst on maternity leave so the last few months have been a nightmare, my hubbie is working all hours poor thing! But knowing that I have saved so much money on christmas presents has kept me going!!


    Good luck everyone and Thank you to all posters xx

    My favourite win ever was just 2 months into my comping hobby - A Macbook and iPod from Classic FM The Macbook worth £800 was a present for my DS at xmas and I kept the ipod for myself:D

    I love the regular little wins though like Mascara etc.

    This thread is a brilliant motivator!!.
    I have only been comping for around 6 weeks but have won 2 Pepsi Nokia 5800`s amongst other things.
  • My most valuable win was the Daily Mail Wish List, worth £543-odd.

    Other favourites were Glastonbury tickets, a Nokia 5800 and being in an AC/DC music video shoot.
  • I want a 5800 - Shame I don't drink pepsi, or is there another route?

    My best win has to be the flights to Chicago, we go in about 11 weeks and I cannot wait! Also a dell netbook, the prize was meant to be hospitality tickets to a Liverpool champions league game but the tickets turned up late, and they sent the netbook instead with 12 months subscription to Vodafone Live. We don't use it much but took it on our honeymoon so we could look at the pictures from the wedding and it was a god send as the hotels internet connection was always down and you had to pay to use it, so we just used the vodafone connection for nothing!

    My best win was in Feb this year from the Daily Mail on line travel section and was a 5 star £4000 spa holiday for 2 to Mauritius. We went in May and it was incredible. My DH also didn't believe me when I said I had won. I have in the past won a family break to Disneyland Paris, a Thompson family holiday all inclusive to Ibiza, a Bosch washing machine and a Digital Panasonic Camcorder thingy ! I have also won lots of minor type prizes and feel very lucky to have won everything I have had so far. I am not a prolific comper - I work p/t, I have 4 children and look after my 80 yr old mother in law (who lives with us!) but any comp I see in the newspaper, mags and occasionally on line - I always do! I stumbled upon this forum after I had won the Mauritius trip and so I have a go at the odd one on here when I have time !!

    Wow fantastic prizes on this thread! I only started entering comps in June so I am delighted to have won a Nokia phone from Pepsi :T I could never have afforded to spend that much on a mobile so I am over the moon to have won one :D
